Scientific paper

We propose deep XMM observations of a QSO at z6.41. This QSO has one of the highest redshifts currently known, and is the most luminous and massive object known at z6 or greater. Furthermore, unlike any other QSO at these redshifts, this QSO is detected in the sub-mm, indicating that the host galaxy is still forming. We will combine the X-ray and sub-mm data to obtain the first clear picture of the formation of a QSO and its host galaxy at the epoch of reionization. This picture will be used to study the onset and speed of reionization, to test competing large-scale structure models, and to examine the earliest formation stages of the first massive structures in the Universe.
